Clarence the Blue Puppet Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Why do the majority of black reporters defend Pacman Jones? Well I have my ideas as to why, but I'd like to hear others' opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 same reason why they think bonds and vick are victims of witch hunts--they're black and the majority of the country is white. therefore there can be no other explanation other than the fact that we're all a bunch of racists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarence the Blue Puppet Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 400 hundred years of repression. Keep supporting low-lifes like Pacman Jones and you'll keep getting repressed, NOT because of the color of your skin, but by the content of that mans character whose behavior is downright dispicable, no matter how famous or what color you are.

PS. Even most Yankee fans, who we all know have hearts of gold, did not want Bonds in NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even most Yankee fans, who we all know have hearts of gold, did not want Bonds in NY. if bonds wasn't chasing and breaking aaron's record people wouldn't have come down as hard. he doesn't help his situation by being defiant about the whole situation. Giambi told the truth, took his lumps from the fans, and started hitting after he put all the steroids mess behind him, so the fans got over it. if bonds had been honest w/ the grand jury all those years ago, there would have been more cheers when he broke the record simply bc so many years would have passed. i mean no one's coming down hard on sheffield right? last i checked, he was black too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
